I am looking forward to making Russia's outfi (Long coat, scarf, etc) and this will be my first time making an outfit ever.

Has anyone made it before, or knows someone who has, who would be willing to give me advice and step by step instructions?

Oh! My friend has. It was really easy actually. All we did was go to a threft store and got a trench coat. Then we went to Micheal's to get this brown trim strips (makes things a hell a lot easier) and sew them onto the coat. And there was some extra bits we didn't need on the coat so we cut them off as used it to make the shoulder bands and the chest straps.

Never thought of a thrift store idea and there is a big Good Will near where I live. The hardest part would be getting it the right color. DX
